MI 8.6 Analysis
3
Source document
Management response have been included in all strategic evaluations since 2016 but management
responses do not always detail specific responsibilities and accountabilities for the implementation
of recommendations and decentralised evaluations are not always accompanied by a management
response
DIOS uses a web-based tracking tool to follow up on the status of implementation of its strategic
recommendations under UNRWA’s results-based monitoring system. The tool allows tracking of
the implementation status of oversight recommendations from initiation to closure and includes
21, 24, 53, 79, 132, 133
the outline of the actions as well as allocation of responsibility and timelines for implementation
of recommendations. The DIOS annual report includes a summary of the recommendation status
and highlights important developments in implementing recommendations and is shared with the
ACIO and the Advisory Commission. Decentralised evaluations recommendations do not seem to be
tracked and monitored in the same way.
